There’s always a little truth behind the words “just kidding,” a little knowledge behind “I don’t know,” a little emotion behind “I don’t care,” and a little pain behind “I’m ok.”
For every time I’ve heard hurtful words followed by “just kidding,” I know you meant it but don’t have the guts to be honest.
For every time I’ve heard the words “I don’t know” from someone who knows better, I know you’re lying because your eyes are looking everywhere but in mine.
For every time I’ve heard the words “I don’t care” just know that it’s going to take a few more tries to convince me.
For every time I’ve heard the words “I’m ok” know that I feel your pain and see you reassuring yourself with those words.
So .. what are you really saying?
